Buses/Parent Transportation

We have modified some of our processes to better suit the needs of our building. Please be aware of the following changes:

The front drive-thru will be closed for bus use only during start and end times.

If your student is a parent transport, the drop-off and pick-up location will be around the backside of the building. Just follow 256th Place toward the Timberland Library and then turn right onto “N” Place. We’ll be greeting your students at 7:50am under the covered play area. Please do not drop your students off earlier. This presents a safety issue and we do not have staffing to supervise prior to this time. Please also make sure that your student is ready to exit the car as soon as you pull up so that we can continue to get the rest of the students into class on time. We appreciate your help in making this process flow.  

If you arrive after 8am, you will be greeted with a sign that reminds you to drive around and check your student into the office. As usual, all of our exterior doors are locked so it is really important that late arrivals come to the office. Our policy also requires the parent or guardian to physically come into the office and sign their students in so that we have a record of check-in. These are all measures that we are taking to ensure our students’ safety. 

We will also be saying goodbye to our “parent pick-ups” in this same location under the covered play area. Dismissal will begin by 2:25 so you can expect your child to be ready and waiting by 2:30.  

As usual, if you need to pick-up your student mid-day or take care of any business type details, just come to our office and we will be happy to assist you.
